We are excited to be a recipient of the generous sponsorship from Apollo Projects to support students to be able to participate in sports at all levels.

About Apollo Projects

Apollo Projects is a leading New Zealand design and construction company looking to expand its knowledge into Tauranga. Currently, Apollo is working on various projects that are still in the pre-construction stage within this region, in particular, the redevelopment of Memorial Park and the conversion of The Warehouse on Cameron Road to a Sports Facility. Their dedicated team is looking forward to delivering projects that support businesses and communities in Tauranga.

• The funding goes to students who would otherwise miss out. There is a demonstrable need (e.g., disadvantaged circumstances) or financial barrier to participation in sport meaning the student might not participate.

• The individual shows positive interest, ability , or potential in their sport. 

• Funding would assist in potentially providing a better long-term outcome for that student in sports and life.

• Funding would be expected to cover direct payment of sports fees, sporting equipment, support services, travel to events, etc. 

How to apply for funding

• Students would apply for the Apollo Projects Sports Grant via an online form template attached which would be reviewed and approved by the Director of Sport and Sports Coordinator. 

• A limit of $500 per student per annum is to be applied (we are open to bigger grants, however, grants over $500 would be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by Apollo Projects).

It was fabulous to have the opportunity to host one of the founding owners, Craig Waghorn, and the Chief Executive Officer Peter Beggs last week and show them around our Kura.

Tauranga Girls’ College Sports Equity Fund

A reminder that the Board of Trustees is also 100% committed to assisting whānau so their daughter or young person can participate in sport at the local level. We have recently changed the way people can assess this fund.

Now you need to apply using an online Google form - TGC Sports Equity Form.
